Diving Meet

Justine had the opportunity to actually go to a diving meet this winter. 

The season is over now, even though she is still practicing. 

There are a lot of girls on the woodlands team that are on national teams

 and even one training for the Olympics! 

Needless to say that they are really really good. 

So they are the ones that get picked to go to the meets... 

Anyhow, Justine did a good job at the one meet she attended! 

She may not be Olympic material but she sure is beautiful, 

awesome, and Gold medal material in our eyes! 

Coyote update

I'm so happy! A couple of days ago as we were walking in the forest, we met the guy who's dogs were chased by coyotes, and.... he had both dogs!!!!! He found his dog waiting for him by his truck! What a relief! And he didn't have a scratch on him... He said they may have been a pack of wild dogs... Chloe is so fast I'm sure she can outrun them!

Hot dog

Made Skyline hot dogs for lunch today.

Justine: Mom!!!! How do you know when hot dogs are cooked?

Great Storm Houston, TX

This is too funny!

Snow day without Snow!!

So the kids are home from school today.

Reason: Snow day!

Well it is more like Ice day...

There is a huge storm in most of the USA,

that is causing a lot of trouble.

And here in Houston, we are getting a little taste of it:

A little sleet

A little freeze
Lots of school and businesses closing

But unfortunately:

No sledding
No building of snowmen
No snow ball fights
Followed by hot chocolate and a movie
...

And I thought that it was so silly to close everything in Ohio,
when we had just a little snow or ice, so here it seams even more ridiculous

Meet our walking Buddies
